Houston Nutt, who was introduced as the school's 36th head coach on Nov. 28, 2007, served as Ole Miss' head coach from 2008-2011 and guided the Rebels to back-to-back Cotton Bowl wins in 2009 and 10.
After guiding Arkansas to three SEC Western Division titles and eight bowl berths in his decade in Fayetteville, Nutt immediately reversed the Rebels' fortunes and guided Ole Miss to success not experienced in Oxford in a half century.
Nutt's first two years at the helm produced consecutive nine-win seasons for the first time since 1961-62 and back-to-back January bowl victories for the first time since 1960-61.
Including his decade of success at Arkansas, Nutt has guided his teams to 10 bowl berths in the past 13 seasons, most of any SEC Western Division coach during this span. Nutt's squads recorded eight or more wins in eight of those 13 campaigns and nine or more victories in six of those seasons in the SEC.
In his 13 seasons in the conference, Nutt has piled up 53 SEC victories, which ranks 14th in league history and third among current league coaches. With a 97-64 overall mark as an SEC coach, Nutt ranks 18th all-time in the league in coaching victories and behind only Steve Spurrier among active coaches.
In his first season in Oxford, Nutt led one of the greatest turnarounds in school history, reviving a Rebel squad that was coming off four straight losing seasons and a 3-8 campaign with no conference wins in 2007. With a 9-4 record (5-3 in the SEC), it marked the team's best improvement from one season to the next since legendary Ole Miss Coach John Vaught's debut in 1947.
Projected to place fifth in the SEC Western Division in the preseason, Nutt's first Rebel unit finished second in the West, ended the season on a six-game win streak and earned a No. 14 final national ranking.
Nutt's efforts earned him SEC Coach of the Year honors (SEC Coaches and The Touchdown Club of Atlanta) for the third time in his decorated career and AFCA Region Coach of the Year accolades for the fifth time.
Rising as high as No. 4 in the national rankings in 2009, Nutt's Rebels knocked off No. 8 LSU, Tennessee and Arkansas en route to a second straight berth in the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic, in which Ole Miss prevailed over No. 18 Oklahoma State 21-7. The Rebels finished 20th in the AP poll.
Nutt was bestowed with one of his greatest honors in 2009, as the Fellowship of Christian Athletes named him the 2009 FCA Grant Teaff Coach of the Year Award recipient. The award recognizes a football coach who exemplifies Christian principles and who is involved in FCA. The award is also based on the success/performance of the coach's team that year.
With his team decimated by injuries and departures, Nutt saw his streak of four straight seasons of eight or more wins and a January bowl berth come to an end in 2010 with a 4-8 record.
Despite the disappointment, Nutt took optimism away from last season, as 42 underclassmen gained valuable experience, including 18 freshmen. With seven underclassmen earning starts on the offensive line, Ole Miss topped the SEC in fewest sacks allowed and ranked third in rushing offense.
In his three seasons in Oxford, Nutt has continued his reputation as a giant killer, as his Rebels have registered five wins over ranked teams and three against top-10 teams, including a 25-23 victory over eighth-ranked LSU in 2009.
The 2008 Ole Miss squad knocked off three top-20 foes away from Oxford, including the defending national champion in No. 18 LSU and the eventual title holder in No. 4 Florida. The third win was a resounding 47-34 defeat of No. 8 Texas Tech in the 2009 Cotton Bowl.
The upset over the Gators - their lone blemish of the season - provided Nutt his fifth win against a top-five opponent as a head coach. In all five wins, Nutt's team entered the game unranked, and four of the wins came on the road.
Also the 2006 SEC Coach of the Year, Nutt has recorded 21 victories over ranked opponents, including the 50-48 overtime win at eventual national champion and No. 1-ranked LSU in his final game as Arkansas mentor. He has had 25 victories while his own team was ranked.
Nutt, who was also named SEC Coach of the Year in 2001 and National Coach of the Year in 1998, guided Arkansas to three final national rankings, including a final ranking of No. 15 in 2006.
In his 10 seasons in Fayetteville, Nutt was the second-longest tenured coach in the SEC. Arkansas went 75-48 during his time, including 42-38 in SEC play. In the previous eight years prior to Nutt's arrival, Arkansas was 38-51 with two bowl bids. In UA's first six years in the Southeastern Conference (1992-97) prior to Nutt's return to Fayetteville, the Razorbacks totaled only 19 league victories.
After that, Nutt led the Hogs to four nine-win seasons, including a 10-4 mark in 2006, and SEC Western Division championships in 1998, 2002 and 2006. The Razorbacks earned trips to the Citrus (1999), Cotton (2000, 2002 & 2007), Las Vegas (2000), Music City (2002), Independence (2003) and Capital One (2006) bowls.
Under Nutt, the Razorbacks went 53-17 at home, which was the second-most home victories in the SEC during that span.
Nutt and his staff have produced 20 All-America selections, 91 All-SEC selections, a Walter Camp Player of the Year winner (Darren McFadden, 2007), a two-time Doak Walker Award winner (McFadden, 2006 & 2007), a Rimington Trophy winner (Jonathan Luigs, 2007), a two-time Heisman Trophy runner-up (McFadden, 2006 & 2007), two Outland Trophy finalists (Michael Oher, 2008 & Shawn Andrews, 2003) and a Lombardi Award finalist (Andrews, 2003). In UA's first six seasons in the SEC, the Razorbacks averaged three All-SEC picks and had no All-Americans.
Nutt's teams have had 108 games televised since 1998, an average of more than eight per season. In the eight years prior to Nutt's arrival, the Hogs appeared on television 36 times, an average of 4.5 games per year.
Nutt's offensive approach has made the Ole Miss rushing attack rise from one of the SEC's worst to one of the best. In 2008, the Rebels recorded their most rushing yards since 1990 and ranked second in the conference after ranking 11th just one year prior.
Ole Miss' potent rushing production from year one under Nutt (186.5 ypg, 21 TDs) continued in year two (183.6 ypg, 22 TDs), and in 2010, the Rebels raised their rushing average another 20 yards to a 207.6 clip and 28 TDs. Both of those totals ranked third in the SEC.
Arkansas led the SEC in rushing five of Nutt's last six years there and ranked among the nation's top 15 five times. Nutt's teams recorded four of the top eight season rushing totals, five of the top nine season passing totals, the top four total offensive averages, five of the top eight season scoring totals and the top seven touchdown passing seasons in school history.
Defensively, Nutt's squads have ranked among the NCAA's top 30 in rushing defense four times, in passing defense three times and in total defense six times.
In his first year in Oxford, Ole Miss dramatically jumped to No. 2 in the SEC in rushing yards allowed from No. 11 in 2007. In fact, Nutt's Rebels finished fourth in the nation in rush defense and tied for first in tackles for loss.
Ole Miss remained among the NCAA leaders in TFLs again in 2009 at No. 11, while improving in pass defense from 63rd in the nation to 15th. That unit also ranked 11th in pass efficiency defense, 14th in country in sacks and 15th in scoring defense.
Nutt's Ole Miss defense maintained that trend of attacking the backfield in 2010, as it finished No. 19 in the nation in sacks and No. 21 in TFLs.
Nutt has also shown the ability to prepare athletes for the professional level as evidenced by the 41 NFL Draft selections since 1998. He has helped eight former Rebels hear their names called, including two first-rounders for the first time in school history with Michael Oher (Baltimore) and Peria Jerry (Atlanta) in 2009. Fourteen more Rebels have signed free agent contracts.
Nutt also tutored a pair of first-round picks in 2008 and six total draftees. Former Hog Darren McFadden was the fourth overall selection (Oakland), while backfield mate Felix Jones was taken at No. 22 (Dallas) to run the Razorbacks' total to six first-rounders in five years.
In 2007, a total of 13 Razorbacks signed professionally, including four draft picks and nine free agents. Defensive end Jamaal Anderson (Atlanta Falcons) went in the first round.
Quarterback Matt Jones (Jacksonville) made it yet another first-round draft pick under Nutt when he was taken with the 21st overall choice in 2005. In 2004, six former Razorbacks were chosen in the NFL Draft, including first-round selections Shawn Andrews (Philadelphia) and Ahmad "Batman" Carroll (Green Bay).
Nutt also enhanced the academic success of his players with dozens of student-athletes graduating before their athletic eligibility expired and the 175 SEC Academic Honor Roll selections, including 22 Rebels in 2009. A total of 74 Razorbacks were named to UA's Academic Honor Roll (3.0 grade point average or better) during the 2005 and 2006 seasons.
Off the field, Nutt has also given back to the community in a variety of charitable causes. In addition to receiving the 2009 FCA Coach of the Year award, he and his wife Diana committed a gift of $100,000 to the University of Mississippi in April 2009 to create scholarships for deserving student-athletes and to go towards the Indoor Practice Facility.
Houston and Diana are strong supporters of the Boys & Girls Club and welcomed 50 of the Oxford Club's children and their parents as special guests for the 2009 Northern Arizona game.
In the summer of 2009, Nutt took part in the Second Annual Coaches Tour presented by Under Armour, traveling to military bases throughout the Middle East to visit U.S. Troops. Along with head coaches Mack Brown (Texas), Troy Calhoun (Air Force), Rick Neuheisel (UCLA) and Tommy Tuberville (Texas Tech), Nutt headed to the gulf on a USAF KC-135 Refueling Tanker and visited more than 12,000 troops and traveled 20,000 flight miles.
The coaches participated in meet-and-greets at various bases and coached flag football teams made up of servicemen and women. The head coaches also hosted a symposium where audience members had the opportunity to ask questions.
Also in 2009, Nutt received the Award of Merit from representatives from the National Water Safety Congress and Sardis Lake. He was recognized for his part in helping produce several public service announcements about the importance of wearing a life jacket.
* * *
Success is nothing new to the Little Rock, Ark., native. Nutt has compiled a career record of 133-86 (.607) in 18 seasons as a head coach including stops at Murray State, Boise State, Arkansas and Ole Miss.
When Nutt was introduced as Arkansas head coach on Dec. 10, 1997, it would have been difficult for anyone to envision the immediate, positive impact that he had on a program, a university and a state.
Taking the reins of a proud program that had faltered in back-to-back 4-7 seasons, Nutt faced the daunting task of restoring the excitement and passion in Razorback football.
Nutt made an immeasurable impact on the Arkansas football program, but his commitment to enhance the program was not limited to the playing field. Nutt created a family atmosphere for the student-athletes who chose to come to Fayetteville and now to Oxford.
While his on-field accomplishments speak for themselves, it is his investment in the lives of his players that sets him apart. He and his staff personally monitor class attendance and visit players in their apartments and dormitory rooms at night. Nutt consistently makes decisions with the best interests of his program and student-athletes in mind. While wins and losses are easily calculated, it is Nutt's commitment to the academic success of his student-athletes that will continue to pay dividends for years to come.
His philosophy has proven to be a recipe for success in the rough and tumble world of SEC football. Once courted by Frank Broyles as a star quarterback out of Little Rock's Central High School, Nutt first thrilled Hog fans when, as a high school senior, he signed with Broyles over Paul "Bear" Bryant and Alabama. He was the last player to sign a letter of intent to play for Broyles before the legendary coach retired after the 1976 season.
With Ron Calcagni sidelined by an injury, Nutt started four games as a true freshman in 1976. He also lettered for Arkansas' basketball team that year, a squad that finished 26-2 and won the Southwest Conference championship with a perfect 16-0 league mark under Coach Eddie Sutton.
Recruited as a drop-back passer, Nutt spent the 1977 season as a backup in the option-oriented offense instituted by Lou Holtz, Broyles' successor at the helm of the UA football program. He decided to transfer to Oklahoma State where he redshirted and then played two years at quarterback for the Cowboys. He also spent two seasons with the OSU basketball program. Nutt earned his degree in physical education in 1981. Following his graduation, Nutt remained at OSU as a graduate assistant for head coach Jimmy Johnson.
In 1983, he returned to Arkansas as a graduate assistant under Holtz. His first full-time position came at Arkansas State in the spring of 1984, but Nutt never worked a game in Jonesboro. Instead, Nutt returned to Oklahoma State, this time to be a receivers coach, in August of 1984.
He remained in Stillwater for six seasons, working extensively with quarterbacks and receivers. He was named offensive coordinator late in the 1989 season. Heisman Trophy winner Barry Sanders and All-American Thurman Thomas both played for the Cowboys during Nutt's tenure.
Nutt made the trek back to Fayetteville in 1990 to serve as wide receivers coach under Jack Crowe. During his three seasons on campus, Nutt quickly gained a reputation as an aggressive recruiter while he was establishing excellent relationships with high school coaches in Arkansas.
Murray State recognized his abilities and hired him as head coach in 1993. Nutt guided the Racers to steady progress with 4-7 and 5-6 marks in his first two seasons. In 1995, the program took off.
The Racers went 11-1 in 1995 and won the Ohio Valley Conference with a perfect 8-0 mark. They scored a school-record 421 points and had the most improved record in NCAA Division I-AA football. Their league championship was the school's first since 1986. Nutt was named OVC Coach of the Year and The Sports Network/Eddie Robinson National Division I-AA Coach of the Year.
In 1996, the Racers posted an 11-2 record, including a perfect 8-0 mark in winning their second consecutive league title. MSU won its first I-AA playoff game in school history while eclipsing the school scoring record set just the season before. Nutt was again named OVC and Regional Coach of the Year.
Nutt's accomplishments didn't go unnoticed. Boise State, in just its second season of Division I-A football, called on Nutt to take over a fledgling program that was coming off a dismal 2-10 record. In fact, Sports Illustrated rated Boise State 112th out of 112 teams in Division I-A football.
With what most observers agreed was a limited talent pool, Nutt managed to guide the Broncos to a 5-6 record in his first campaign. Nutt's squad held a lead against Wisconsin in the final minute of play at Madison, Wis., before the Badgers escaped with a win. The Broncos did, however, upset archrival Idaho on its own home field to end the 1997 season.
After a successful season at Boise State, Nutt found himself in the running for the top job at Arkansas. The first candidate interviewed, he waited a week to learn his fate before hearing the job was his.
Once he arrived in Fayetteville, he took the state by storm. As he recruited student-athletes, he also re-recruited fans who had grown apathetic during a listless decade of Hog football. Many who had stayed away were rejuvenated by Nutt's enthusiasm.
Fans were not the only ones attracted to Nutt's refreshing approach. Picked to finish last in the SEC West, the Razorbacks exploded out of the gates, winning their first eight games. Arkansas had top-ranked Tennessee on the ropes at Knoxville, Tenn., before an untimely fumble allowed the Volunteers to escape on the way to a national championship.
The Razorbacks finished 9-3 and won a share of the SEC Western Division title. The Hogs made their first ever trip to the Florida Citrus Bowl and concluded the season with their first top-20 poll finish (16th) in nine seasons. For his efforts, Nutt was named Football News' National Coach of the Year.
In 1999, the Razorbacks became the Western Division favorite because of an unusually large senior class. The Hogs had trouble on the road throughout the campaign, but finished in the manner of legends, defeating No. 3 Tennessee and No. 12 Mississippi State on consecutive weekends to earn a spot opposite long-time rival Texas in the Cotton Bowl.
Nutt's well-prepared team handed the Longhorns a 27-6 defeat in front of a packed house that included more than 40,000 cardinal-clad Hog fans. For the first time in its illustrious history, Texas was held to negative rushing yards. Once again the Hogs finished in the top 20 in the final polls, and Nutt's status in the eyes of fans was raised to an even higher level.
In the 2000 campaign, Nutt faced his toughest challenge yet, taking on a daunting schedule without the services of the top career passer (Clint Stoerner) and receiver (Anthony Lucas) in school history. From literally the first day of workouts, Nutt and the Razorbacks faced more than their fair share of adversity and injuries. Nine players were lost for the season to injury, including the top three tailbacks listed on the preseason depth chart. In addition, dozens of other players missed practice and game time with various ailments.
Despite all the misfortune and distractions, Nutt rallied his team to back-to-back wins over No. 13 Mississippi State and No. 24 LSU to secure yet another winning regular season and a bowl game.
In 2001, the Razorbacks stumbled to a 1-3 start, including three-straight losses in league play. Nutt and the Hogs rebounded to win six of their final seven regular-season games, including wins over conference divisional leaders in consecutive contests. Arkansas topped No. 9 South Carolina, 10-7, before downing No. 17 Auburn, 42-17. The Hogs won their way back to Dallas for a New Year's Day meeting with defending national champion Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl.
The 2002 season started impressively with convincing wins over Boise State and South Florida. After a home loss to Alabama and a road defeat at the hands of Tennessee in six overtimes, the Razorbacks' hopes for a division title looked bleak, but once again Nutt rallied his team down the stretch. Five straight wins, including road conference wins at South Carolina and Mississippi State, gave the Hogs a chance for a share of the SEC Western Division crown. Trailing nationally ranked LSU with less than a minute to play, quarterback Matt Jones found DeCori Birmingham in the back of the end zone for a 31-yard touchdown pass, a share of the SEC Western Division title and a ticket to the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta, Ga. Arkansas made its second appearance in the league championship game and capped its season in the Music City Bowl.
The Razorbacks wasted little time getting noticed in 2003. Arkansas topped No. 5 Texas, 38-28, in a nationally televised showdown at Austin in the second game of the season. Arkansas vaulted into the national polls at No. 14, marking the highest debut of any team since the poll was expanded to 25 teams in 1989. Two weeks later, Arkansas rallied for a 34-31 double-overtime win at Alabama to keep the momentum going. After suffering a trio of heartbreaking conference games, Arkansas salvaged its season with a historic 71-63 seven-overtime win at Kentucky. The Hogs tied their own NCAA record for overtime periods set in 2001 at Ole Miss. The memorable win ignited a streak that saw the Razorbacks win four of their last five games including a 27-14 win over Missouri in the Independence Bowl.
Nutt was only the third head coach in Arkansas history to lead the Hogs to bowl games in each of his first six seasons. Nutt joined former UA leaders Lou Holtz and Ken Hatfield in accomplishing that feat.
Arkansas mounted another late-season run in 2004 before coming up just shy of extending its bowl streak to a school record seven-consecutive seasons.
With a new quarterback, the Razorbacks missed out on a bowl bid in 2005, but showed great improvement down the stretch. UA led the SEC in rushing for the third time in four years, won two of its last three and suffered its last three losses by a combined nine points.
The Hogs were back in business in 2006. After a season-opening loss, Arkansas reeled off 10 straight wins, including wins over No. 2 Auburn, No. 13 Tennessee and No. 22 Alabama, and won the Western Division title. UA had chances to win but came up short against No. 4 Florida in the SEC Championship game, 38-28, and in the Capital One Bowl against No. 6 Wisconsin, 17-14. Darren McFadden led the SEC and set a school record by running for 1,647 yards and 14 touchdowns. He won the Doak Walker Award as the country's top tailback and finished second in Heisman Trophy balloting.
Nutt was named SEC Coach of the Year by the SEC coaches, the Associated Press and the Little Rock and Atlanta touchdown clubs. Also a national coach of the year finalist, away from the field he was recognized as the 2006 Easter Seals Arkansan of the Year.
Much like the nine prior, Nutt's final campaign with the Razorbacks displayed the determination of his teams. After a 3-3 start that saw a three-point loss at Alabama and a two-point setback to No. 22 Auburn, Arkansas rallied with wins in five of its last six games en route to earning a Cotton Bowl berth.
His coaching finale with his homestate team epitomized the heart of Nutt's Razorbacks. A huge underdog in Death Valley, Arkansas marched into Baton Rouge and battled past the nation's top-ranked team and eventual BCS champion LSU in a 50-48 triple-overtime classic. It was Nutt's seventh OT game with the Hogs, posting an amazing 6-1 record.
* * *
Nutt is quick to credit his upbringing for laying the foundation for his success. His parents, the late Houston Sr. and Emogene, spent 35 years teaching young people at the Arkansas School for the Deaf in Little Rock. His father, a 2001 inductee into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame, also served as athletics director and head basketball coach.
The oldest of four Nutt boys, Houston is not the only family member carrying on his father's coaching legacy. Dickey spent 13 seasons as the head basketball coach at Arkansas State and is now the head coach at Southeast Missouri State, while Danny was the Razorbacks' running backs coach from 1998-2006 and is currently Ole Miss' Assistant Athletics Director for Player Development. Dennis was the head basketball coach at Texas State for six years and spent time as an NBA scout. The Nutt coaching foursome was featured in an article in Sports Illustrated in 1999.
Houston Nutt has proven true to his family's rich coaching heritage: a heritage that is centered on commitment, enthusiasm and a passion for people. He has impacted his players' lives and revitalized tradition-rich programs in both Arkansas and now Ole Miss.
Born Oct. 14, 1957, Nutt and his wife Diana, who also graduated from Oklahoma State, have four children: Houston III, twins Hailey and Hanna, and Haven.

Hoke: Denard "should be fine"
During his press conference today (going on now). He says the nerve running down the elbow was numb and tingly but should he should be able to play Saturday. It didn't sound like 100% sure but fairly confident.
Devin will get more snaps this week. More if Denard isn't progressing as well as they think he will. He will compete if Denard isn't ready.
Russell gained a lot of experience during that game. He'll learn from it. They need to do a better job of the blitzes.

High-Scoring High Schools
The Mackinac Center's new "Context and Performance" High School Report Card factors student socioeconomic status into four years of standardized test scores for nearly 600 public high schools in Michigan and ranks the schools accordingly.
Below is a list of the top 10 Michigan counties with the highest-scoring high schools. In order to avoid having counties with a single high school skew the results, counties with only one high school were not included in this list.
Stay Engaged
Interestingly, there is a cluster of adjacent counties in northeast Michigan that reported high-scoring schools: Students in Roscommon, Ogemaw and Oscoda counties have relatively high-scoring high schools to choose from.
Van Buren County has the most high schools of any county on this list (11). All high schools in Van Buren County scored greater than 100, meaning that their students scored better than predicted on standardized tests. Five Van Buren high schools received an 'A.'

text: London-by-way-of-New-Zealand rockers the Veils recently debuted the new single from their upcoming fourth album Time Stays, We Go, the first bit of proper new material since 2009's Sun Gangs (the less said about 2011's EP Troubles of the Brain, the better). Frontman Finn Andrews (son of XTC founder Barry Andrews) has always been a combustible sort – his vocal performance tends to range anywhere from stately and forlorn to bloodied and raw, sometimes all on the same song (see opener "Not Yet" off their classic 2006 album Nux Vomica) – and nothing seems to have cooled the fire in his voice in the intervening years since they last appeared on the scene. Yet that album begged the question of just what all this emotional turmoil was really accomplishing; an accumulation of dramatic hard times that seemed more exhausting than cathartic, the end result of a band never quite seeming to capitalize on that consistent "underrated" label to achieve greater indie success? "Through The Deep, Dark Wood" sweeps away all the hesitant trifles of Troubles of the Brain and embraces Andrews' inherent talent for stirring anthems, the thud of the drums and the whipcrack of the guitars marrying Andrews' stark, powerful vocals to a thrilling hook. "No, I can't go back," Andrews wails on that cleansing chorus, and while that may not be true, strictly speaking (this song would have fit right at home on either Nux Vomica or their 2004 debut The Runaway Found), "Through The Deep, Dark Wood" again proves that few indie bands have quite the abundance of piss and vinegar that the Veils do.

Lifeless Planet to Come to Life June 6, 2014 - May 1, 2014
With Lifeless Planet, the goal of indie developer David Board (aka Stage 2 Studios) is to put the "adventure" back in "action-adventure."
After an expedition to a distant, allegedly life-bearing planet experiences a rough landing, the player's character discovers that the planet is actually barren and inhospitable. Further, his fellow astronauts are missing and his oxygen tank is leaking.
As he explores his surroundings, he finds an abandoned Soviet-era laboratory and encounters a strange and deadly phenomenon from which he's saved by a mysterious young woman.
Is the woman really there, or some sort of hallucination? Is she an ally? Is he really on another planet or is this part of an elaborate hoax? Has he uncovered a Cold War secret 20 light-years from Earth
Lifeless Planet has been successfully funded through Kickstarter. It will initially be released on PC and Mac; hopefully, other platforms will follow.

(AP) MLB likely to discuss security after bombings
Stadium operations officials from the 30 big league baseball teams will meet this week and are expected to discuss whether to make any security changes in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings.
Major League Baseball said the meeting Thursday in New York was planned before the attacks last week.
Among the security topics that could be discussed are backpacks that fans bring into ballparks.
Each team has different policies for fans, although the general major league limitation on bag sizes is 16 inches by 16 inches by 8 inches. Teams might talk about whether they want to cut that down from the size of a standard school backpack to something such as a laptop carrying bag.

Since I've been back now on a some-what regular basis one of my goals has been to get back on track requesting coupons direct from the manufacturer! In my opinion, they ARE in fact some of the best coupons that a couponer can acquire...
My Mailbox Madness Request a Coupon Series…
I've found that coupons direct from the manufacturer to my mailbox are very often the best way to get coupons for products most used in my home. When contacting manufacturers directly and giving them positive feedback I have found the rewards (coupons) that appear in my mailbox are some of the best! In addition to being higher in value they often have extended expiration dates and once in awhile I get some that don't expire…
Each day I'm going to contact one manufacturer and give them my honest opinion about their product. Today I'm contacting:
Company: Hillandale Farms
Phone: No Phone Listed
Website: Click HERE to be redirected to the Hillandale Farms website.
Email: Click HERE to contact Hillandale Farms via email.
Facebook: No Facebook Page
Many companies provide links to printable coupons on their websites. In addition to sending an email or calling the manufacturer I suggest looking around their site for any printables!
Is there a coupon that you've been looking for? Leave a comment and let me know ~ I'll do my best to help you find it!

Tenn. man arrested in Ky. in slaying
Tenn. man arrested in Ky. in slaying
MURRAY, Ky. —
Police in western Kentucky have charged a Tennessee man with murder, saying he ran over a woman with a van.
Deputies with the Calloway County Sheriff's Office said 55-year-old James Paul Cook of McLemoresville, Tenn., is also charged with operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs and leaving the scene of an accident in connection to the death on Thursday night of 37-year-old Desiree Moore of Puryear, Tenn.
Maj. Clayton Hendricks told the Murray Ledger & Times that Cook and Moore had been together in a van, but got into an argument that resulted in Moore getting out of the vehicle. Hendricks said Cook ran over her at least twice with the vehicle.
Records at the Calloway County Jail don't indicate whether he has an attorney.

Music maestro and budget friendly are just two ways of describing the Samsung Galaxy Music, another addition to the manufacturer's growing Android portfolio.
The Samsung Galaxy Music runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which though not the latest Jelly Bean offering is to be expected from a handset that - judging by the rest of the specs - is geared towards an entry-level audience.
So what of those specs? We'll we're looking at a 3-megapixel rear-facing camera, a 3-inch TFT capacitive touchscreen with a 240 x 320 pixel resolution and a "powerful processor". What type of CPU this will be however is unclear, with Samsung remaining tight-lipped. We'd suggest you don't expect a quad-core.
While it may be lacking in some areas, the Samsung Galaxy Music tries to make it up with its audio credentials. A dedicated key will fire up the music player which is capable of planning all manner of music files from the usual MP3 and WMA formats to the more obscure.
Found on the front of the device are dual stereo speakers, while there's also an FM and 3.5mm headset jack. As for the quality of sound, Samsung has included its SoundAlive technology and SRS to enhance the experience. All welcome additions, though nothing you wouldn't find in any higher-end device.
No word on pricing or availability yet, but Samsung has said that a dual SIM version will also be available in the shape of the Samsung Galaxy Music Duos.

It has become a routine: rumors and speculations lead up to an Apple event wherein the company introduces products that "fail expectations" but go on to sell out and make huge profits. But why does this happen like clockwork, year after year?
To be sure, part of it comes from market speculators who make money from AAPL price swings, but the inability or unwillingness of analysts and pundits to understand how Apple works is the more likely reason.
The "failure" is declared by comparing Apple's hardware specs against those of its competitors. Like "covering" a U.S. President through the confines of the White House press briefing room, hardware specs are the lazy person's ideal tool: short, simple, often numerical, but ultimately not very illuminating.
One of the key ingredients of Apple's spectacular success over the last decade has been the inability of its rivals to distinguish hardware from product. As the proverbial design adage goes, "People don't want to buy a quarter-inch drill. They want a quarter-inch hole." Non-geeks, Apple's primary audience, aren't interested in what the hardware is, but how the product solves their specific problems. Hence they buy on demonstrable value, rather than on potential of hardware specs.
But Apple detractors ask why should the most valuable technology company on the planet — with a large patent portfolio, unrivaled in-house industrial design capabilities and enormous influence over its supply chain and component pricing — fail to offer the best hardware specs in the industry for its premium products? There are a few basic reasons why Apple doesn't believe it's in a hardware race.
Hit or miss, no surprises here
Like Hollywood, Apple is perceived to run a hit-driven business. Perhaps the single most important question affecting AAPL's P/E compression is whether Apple can continue to generate blockbuster products with regularity, especially in its most profitable iOS line.
This requires a sufficient degree of surprise of the "One more thing…" variety and the secrecy that secures it. However, it's a monumental task for Apple to coordinate the sourcing and assembly of countless parts for its iOS and Mac devices from three continents in total secrecy so that it can spring on its loyal users products to buy at specific annual intervals. No wonder Tim Cook recently said Apple is going to "double down on secrecy."
While surprise has been essential to Apple's success, total secrecy may no longer be attainable or even necessary.
From Retina displays to DRAM chips to CPUs, Apple's principal component supplier for iOS devices is Samsung, accounting for about a quarter of the component cost of an iPhone. To add insult to injury, Samsung is also Apple's biggest rival in consumer electronics and one that takes particular delight in aping every aspect of its products down to icons. Furthermore, as various investigations and court cases reveal, many people in Apple's vast supply chain are fond of divulging its upcoming product secrets in exchange for money from stock manipulators and rivals. One way or another, rumors, tips, "supply chain checks" and "sources in Asia" turn into a steady stream of "Confirmed!" headlines that then precondition us to discount the significance of Apple's offerings when they do in fact materialize.
Lately, it's become very difficult for Apple to surprise us with breakthrough hardware. As a matter of fact, since the introduction of the iPhone, Apple gave us precious few surprising breakthroughs in hardware. To an average user, the differences between consecutive iPhone versions, from 3G to 4S, are purely incremental improvements or aesthetic embellishments, not hardware breakthroughs. Sure, better cameras, higher resolution screens, cases that feel richer to the touch, faster speeds…but no significant surprises or breakthroughs in hardware. In hardware terms, the iPad is indeed not much more than a large iPod touch. And yes, days before their likely introduction, we know and certainly expect Retina-like displays on upcoming Macs. They'll surely be great, but hardly surprising hardware breakthroughs.
Lots of new technologies not yet in iOS products have already been deployed by an army of Apple rivals: larger phone screens, NFC, haptic displays, stylus, inductive charging, very high-resolution cameras and so on. So we couldn't count their appearance on upcoming Apple products as surprising or hardware breakthroughs either.
But doesn't Apple have a ton of interesting patents yet to be deployed? Indeed, Apple has a huge spectrum of hardware patents, ranging from illuminated hardware cases to password recovery information stored inside a charging adapter to optical stylus with advanced haptics to Thunderbolt interface on iOS devices to coded/secure magnets to ionic wind generator cooling systems.
We could certainly see in an upcoming iOS device some unforeseen application of Liquid Metal or a novel 3D camera setup or flawless bio-metric security or a one-week battery or a silky smooth digital pen with zero perceptible latency or wireless power transmission or bendable screens…We could, but we likely won't any time soon.
Apple knows how to count SKUs
There are certain characteristics of Apple that put it in a different category than any other hardware manufacturer. Unlike others, Apple carries an extremely small number of products in each category, with minor and easily discernible differences. There's really only one iPhone and one iPad. There are no pro, lite, region-specific or one-off versions. Samsung can introduce a phablet with a stylus. When it fails, not a big deal, Samsung has dozens of other models. Motorola can try a smartphone that forms the brains of a larger computer when docked into it. When it fails, it's yet another Motorola model to be forgotten. Kyocera can try a dual-touchscreen phone. When it fails, Kyocera has scores of other models that will also fail.
When Apple introduces its annual phone, however, it's a single product, with minor storage, radio and black|white SKU variations. These days, a new iPhone product has to sell 100-200 million units within 12-18 months. There's no room for (what often seems) frivolous experimentation so prevalent in the industry. No other single product sells in such large numbers.
Follow me
Apple is also unique in constantly moving millions of users into elevated patterns of computing behavior over time. Apple creates markets, others follow. As a market maker, if you will, Apple is in a unique position to create the rules and then educate its users in how to participate in the new paradigm. No other technology company has ever created so many "markets" and educated so many users. Historically, Apple has taught millions how to use GUI-based computers with a mouse. It transitioned personal storage from floppies to hard disk to optical disk to flash. It moved the notion of a cellphone from a device that makes phone calls to a diminutive personal computer with multiple sensors and multi-touch input for hundreds of millions of people. It got millions to pay for music online by the song. It educated people into buying billions of apps instead of using a web browser.
Of course, these new markets have been very good to Apple. But (as I explained four years ago in Why Apple doesn't do "Concept Products") with market making comes the responsibility of introducing new technologies with extreme deliberation and the willingness to educate tens of millions of users year after year. There's no magic to introducing a new OS, for example, when your previous one is deployed by only 7% of your users. In market making, there are no shortcuts.
It may be a dilemma, but it's not a weakness
The rumor inflated expectations prior to Apple product introductions, followed by the inevitable "let down" has been a familiar leitmotif. Doubled-down secrecy or not, this is unlikely to change in the near future.
But what the pundits may be missing is that Apple is hardly unhappy about this state of affairs. When Steve Jobs said in 2010 that "RIM would have a hard time catching up to Apple because it has been forced to move beyond its area of strength and into unfamiliar territory of trying to become a software platform company," it was clear that smartphone value proposition had transitioned from hardware to platforms — a clear Apple core competency.
Apple has the best hardware-software-service integration in the industry, bar none. So the fact that the new device wars are now actually fought not on hardware specs but on vertical integration accords Apple a unique advantage. Hardware discipline coupled with constrained SKU count give Apple enormous economies of scale which, in turn, provide depth, reach, staying power, unparalleled gross margins, service excellence and, ultimately, customer loyalty. Counterintuitive as it may seem, rivals may find out that too much hardware "innovation" can actually kill a company. And that is a dilemma.

For example, consider real U.S. stock returns by decade (including dividends):
When you look at this chart what conclusion do you draw? Yes, returns vary, but does that mean that we should just buy and hold? Does it imply that investing is mostly ? The investors from the 1930s and 1940s will likely have a very different answer than those from the 1980s and 1990s.
We can go further and compare U.S. stock and bond returns during the biggest stock market crashes of the past century. If we start at the peak before the crash, we can see how each market crash provides a different experience for the investors of that era:
However, this graphic isn't the best we can do. We can overlay these peaks on top of each other to get an even better comparison of each one:
As you can see, each one of these periods provided a different takeaway for investors. I might say, "Bonds provide stability when stocks crash," but the investors of 1973–1974 would say, "Not so fast."As you can see, each one of these periods provided a different takeaway for investors.
The point is that realizing your financial frame of reference can be helpful for understanding how you might react to future market events. For example, I know that I am biased against real estate investments because I saw my parents lose their home in the housing crisis of 2007–2008. This is clearly an example of recency bias clouding my judgement, but I honestly can't seem to shake it though I know better.
So ask yourself: what is your financial frame of reference? Are you biased for or against any particular asset class? If so, do you have evidence for this? Studying market history can help to tame these biases, but they will always be difficult to overcome . So next time you hear someone make a comment about the market, before you agree or disagree, remember the relative lens through which they (and you) view the financial world.Studying market history can help to tame these biases, but they will always be difficult to overcome

Dear ASPECT friends:
After ten years, twenty-six DVDs and the published works of over 200 artists, the staff and board of ASPECT have decided to stop publishing our DVD periodical. Looking back on what we have accomplished, it is no understatement to say that we took on the art world and changed the way it looks at new media art.
When ASPECT published our first DVD in 2003 there were few, if any, dedicated new media programs at the graduate or undergraduate level in the world. Youtube and Facebook did not yet exist. At that time the idea of getting video directly from artists and publishing it for the use and consumption of universities, students and other artists was considered impossible. A DVD periodical was an unknown idea, and it took several years to educate the public as to the potential of such a format.
Today, new media art programs exist at universities around the world. Many artists publish their work on their own website or on video sharing services. Video art is a much more accepted and understood medium, and the broader genre of new media art has been accepted and integrated into galleries, museums and academia. However, the concept of pairing primary source material and critical analysis in the same publication remains unique to ASPECT.
The world has changed around us and accepted the genre, format and approach that ASPECT has been highlighting. Therefore it is time for us to say thank you to all the artists who have contributed their work, the commentators who have lent their time and expertise, and the staff and volunteers over the years who have made this publication possible.

The Tuscany SCA Java Project
This page provides a high-level overview of the Java SCA (Service Component Architecture) subproject of the Apache Tuscany incubator project.
The SCA Java project is a subproject of the Apache Tuscany incubator project intended to provide a Java implementation of the SCA Specifications. being developed by the Open SOA Collaboration
Packaging / Partitioning
SPI <<about the SPI >>
Core <<about what goes into the core, mentioning about extension points etc. >>
- Runtime
- Services
Containers <<about container extensions>>
Bindings <<about binding extensions>>
Design & Implementation
<<Covers the major components / features of tuscany - the runtime launching, Modularity - the extension Model (Loaders, Builders, Invokers...)>>
Tuscany Extensions
- a loader that handles extension-specific XML elements
- a builder that creates extension-specific components
- the runtime components that hook into the wiring fabric
Each extension is packaged as a composite which can be <included> in another or which can be deployed into the system. When the composite starts, all the components it contains register themselves with the appropriate registries in the runtime (e.g. the LoaderRegistry).
<<this section will contain information about the various distributions (fall out of the discussions on Modularity currently going on in the Mailing Lists>>
Downloading and Installing
<<should have contents that ideally point to the Apache Tuscany Website>>
- The samples demonstrate the deployment of one or more service components into the SCA Runtime, then finding them and invoking service methods on them. The responsibility of bringing up the runtime, loading it with components defined in various scdls and finally deploying them as Service Components (runtime artifacts) in abstracted into the Launcher. Hence to test a sample service component, the first step would be to start the launcher.
Tescases in Samples
- The testcases of SCA Samples extend from SCATestCase which starts the Launcher as part of the test setup. Thus before the testcases are actually executed the Laucher is started and it handles the booting of the SCA Runtime, loading of system components as well as the application components (spread across various scdl files). Hence the sample testcases simply deal with obtaining a runtime context, locating the service component being tested and invoking service methods on them.
CompositeContext context = CurrentCompositeContext.getContext(); helloWorldService = context.locateService(HelloWorldService.class, "HelloWorldComponent"); System.out.println(helloWorldService.sayHello("Friend"));
Running Samples from within IDE
Download the source code from https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/java and build the distribution. This will create <Tuscany Codebase>\distribution\sca\standalone\target with two files standalone-1.0-SNAPSHOT-bin.tar.gz and standalone-1.0-SNAPSHOT-bin.zip.
Unpack say standalone-1.0-SNAPSHOT-bin.zip, if you are working on windows, to some location on your machine for example c:\Tuscany_Standalone.
A more detailed set of steps was contributed by Francesco in our user mailling list :
- 1.build the SCA Source Distribution from the source 2.generate eclipse projects (mvn -PEclipse eclipse:eclipse) 3.build the Samples (unpacking the Tuscany standalone server as indicated) 4.generate eclipse projects 5.import SCA and Samples projects in Eclipse 6.add the "target\distribution\bin\launcher.jar" to the build path of the sample-calculator project (right-click on the jar) 7.create a new Java Application configuration to launch the sample
7.1 (Main Tab) select the "org.apache.tuscany.launcher.MainLauncherBooter" or "org.apache.tuscany.launcher.Main" if you are using trunk class of the target\distribution\bin\launcher.jar as Main class (checking "Includes libraries when searching for a main class") 7.2 (Arguments Tab) add "target/sample-calculator.jar" as Program Argument 7.3 (Source Tab) add all the SCA M2 eclipse projects as sources
Running Samples from within IDEA & Eclipse
Create a junit configuration for e.g. CalculatorTestCase
- Edit that configuration to set the system property "-Dtuscany.installDir=c:\Tuscany_Standalone"
- Run or Debug that configuration
Remote Debugging
$ java -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE - Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=5005 -jar bin/launcher.jar ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/tuscany/samples/ sca/sample-localwire/1.0-SNAPSHOT/sample-localwire-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
and then attach to the suspended process.

Aside from creating your own quality time, it will give your home an individually personalized style.

- "A Wanderer who expresses the love for Art / Sound and Texture, whilst on a nomadic journey in to the nothingness." I traveled rural India and have become particularly interested in the creativity and vibrancy of rural craftspeople and the ingenious way in which they construct their homes despite limited resources. I have always been interested in documenting different cultures, and especially the ways in which people adapt to different environments through displacement. The skills and lifestyles of nomadic craftspeople and the haunting beauty of tribal landscapes fascinate me and it is a line of enquiry I wish to pursue in my graphic work. web site : http://web.me.com/hasibmaricar/Site/Home.html Email: email@example.com Twitter:http://twitter.com/nomadicwhirler

Not only do I get the opportunity to put together fun costumes, but it is always a great excuse to make fun foods for the kids and guests. Working with Kraft Foods on this sponsored campaign has been a perfect fit for my creative needs as well as taste buds!
Here are two very simple Halloween inspired treats that will not only be fun for your kids, but fun for you to make. Both of these require little effort in order to have a cute snack that will make your kid smile. Not to mention, they are tasty!
These cute little fellas require no cooking or baking and would make the perfect treat for after school or school parties.
Flying Ghosts on Brooms
Prep Time: 2 minutes/broom • Cook Time: 0 minutes • Serves: 126 servings (one broom/person)
1 bag (8 oz.) JET-PUFFED GHOSTMALLOWS
1 bag (16 oz.) pretzel sticks
1 box (4.5 oz.) fruit snack strips
PRESS the pretzel horizontally through the bottom of the Kraft JET-PUFFED GHOSTMALLOW making sure to leave a little more sticking out on one end than the other.
CUT off a small piece of your fruit snack. Fray one end of the fruit snack using scissors.
TWIST the fruit snack around the longer end of the pretzel in order to resemble a broom.

Northwoods Spotlight - Hodag mountain biker Oct 16
Submitted: 10/16/2013
- Cross country and mountain biking. Not exactly two sports you would pair together. But a Rhinelander junior has done just that.And he's earned high marks in both. Rhinelander's Issac Wendt knows all about speed, endurance and power... in fact, he recently won the first ever WI Interscholastic State Championship in mountain biking. SOT - Issac Wendt "I went and I just rode and had fun with it," Wendt says. "Seeing what it was like when I got there, I realized that the course was fitting my style."More than 60 racers representing schools across the state competed. Wendt won the varsity boys division with a time of one hour and 21 minutes for the 20 mile course.Issac had a simple approach to the race."I went out and got a good lead and I knew I was in first place and just kept trying to put more time on the next guys. It's cool when you know you're in first and everyone's looking at you." The junior also plays basketball and runs cross country. His coaches say the sports compliment each other."Cross training is a great thing to do for runners," Issac's cross country coach M.J. Laggis adds. "You can see the definition on his legs and the biking is helping his running big time."While Issac was thrilled to win the first state race, he hopes it's just the beginning and that the sport gains more popularity."I hope it catches on with the high school crowd and people get into it and everyone wants to ride together," Wendt explains.

Forest in Winter
by Carol Lerner
Each morning the Sun rises a little later and dips lower in the sky. The shorter days of fall send a signal to every living thing in the forest. Winter is coming!
The summer birds have already flown south. Other forest animals are growing thick new coats of fur. They search among the dead leaves on the ground, looking for fallen acorns and nuts, or ripe seeds and berries. Skunks, bears, and raccoons eat as much as they can and put on layers of fat under their skins. Squirrels bury nuts and acorns to store for winter. Chipmunks and mice carry food to their winter nests.
When winter comes, woodchucks move into underground dens and begin a deep sleep called hibernation. Soon the woodchuck's heart slows and its body temperature drops almost to the freezing point. For months it will not eat or drink.
Bears and skunks take long naps too, but their heart rates and temperatures stay close to normal. Their winter fat helps feed them and keep them warm.
A freeze could kill cold-blooded animals—turtles, snakes, toads, and insects. Their bodies cannot make heat, so their temperatures drop to nearly that of their surroundings. Some keep warm and alive under the ground, where they sleep until spring comes.
Insects may pass the winter as an egg, a wormlike larva, a pupa, or an adult.
Moles dig down below the frost line and stay active, feeding on the worms and insects they find in their tunnels.
Forest animals that have not stored food for winter must struggle through deep snow to find a meal.
Deer eat buds and twigs on the low branches of trees and bushes. Foxes hunt for rabbits and mice.
Opossums are night animals. During cold spells they stay in cozy nests until hunger forces them out to look for food.
Shrews have little time to rest in winter. These tiny mouselike animals must eat almost constantly—day and night!—just to stay alive. They tunnel under the snow, looking for worms, insects, plant roots—anything they can eat.
A hollow tree may be a raccoon's home. Raccoons come out at night to feed. Squirrels and birds are active in the short hours of daylight.
Squirrels leave their leafy tree nests to eat twigs, buds, and bark. They smell along the ground to find the nuts they buried in fall.
The hardy forest birds that stay all winter search the trees for hidden insects and spiders. Chickadees and titmice pick small insects and insect eggs from the twigs. The nuthatch moves headfirst down the tree and pries insects and spiders from under flakes of bark. Woodpeckers drill into the trunk for beetles and other insects buried in the wood.
For forest animals, it's not easy to stay alive through winter. Each must find its own way to survive.
- Some animals stay above ground during the winter. How do their bodies change?
[anno: These animals change by growing thicker coats of fur and gaining layers of fat beneath their skin.]
- Some animals stay underground during the winter. How do their bodies change?
[anno: The body temperature of some of the animals drops down to freezing or near freezing. The heart rate for some animals slows down. Other gain winter fat to keep them warm.]
- Do you think it would be easy or difficult to be an animal living in this forest during the winter? Why? Explain your answer in a sentence or two.
[anno: Answers will vary. Students may think it is difficult to be a forest animal in the winter because the animals must spend a lot of time looking for food. Students may think it is easy to be an animal in the winter because the animals sleep through the winter.]
